This procurement falls under DLA Troop Support's mission to supply construction and equipment items to military services and other federal customers.

Who can bid

This opportunity is strictly limited to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) concerns verified in the System for Award Management (SAM). To qualify, your business must:

Joint ventures are permitted under FAR 19.14 if the SDVOSB partner meets these requirements and is designated in SAM as the managing venturer. Non-SDVOSB entities, including those participating through subcontracting arrangements as the prime contractor, are ineligible.

How to put together a competitive bid

Product specification compliance: LED lamps under FSC 62 must meet precise military or federal performance standards. Review the solicitation for exact wattage equivalents, lumen output, color temperature, base types, and expected service life. DLA typically requires commercial items that conform to specific energy efficiency standards or MIL-SPEC equivalents.

Quality certification: Be prepared to document manufacturing quality systems. DLA often requires ISO 9001 certification or equivalent quality assurance programs for electrical components. Identify whether your products are on the DLA Qualified Products List (QPL) if applicable.

Pricing structure: Analyze DLA's historical pricing for LED lamp contracts through the Contract History tool in SAM or FPDS. DLA Troop Support awards frequently favor vendors offering below-ceiling pricing with stable, multi-year availability.

Packaging and marking: Military packaging requirements (MIL-STD-2073) often apply to DLA shipments. Detail your capability to provide unit packs, intermediate packs, and exterior shipping containers with proper military markings and RFID compliance if required.

Past performance: Highlight comparable federal or commercial LED/electrical product deliveries, especially to DLA or other defense customers.

SDVOSB documentation: Ensure your SAM profile reflects current SDVOSB status and that any required CVE (Center for Verification and Evaluation) documentation is active.
